Abstract
In a recently published paper (Tsui et al 2005 Phys. Med. Biol. 50 3235-44), the authors demonstrated estimation of the Nakagami parameter of the logcompressed envelopes and the application of such an approach in ultrasonic tissue characterization. The comments in this letter suggest that the authors ignored some important statistical properties of logcompressed data leading to serious errors in their studies and results.
